Aluminum Screw Tops (booze)

Postby TheJonasCollegeFund » Tue Sep 14, 2010 8:09 am

I've been finding alot of these with my metal detector. What do you do with them? They are aluminum right? I'm talking about the srew off caps from the BIG beer bottles, cheap wine, and the hard stuff. I'm starting to save all of the metal I've been finding. Just wondering what to do with this type of aluminum.

By me you can turn them with alum cans. If they won't take them with the cans I would then put them in with the painted alum.

If you were to save up a 5 gal bucket of each metal type found, I wonder how long that would take? I am sure you find more steel than alum in a average day.
